Defend Fire Pant - Women's

Not comfortable, not fully fleece lined.

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

There is technically only fleece in part of these pants, the fleece is thin and not great quality. 100% not enough fleece to justify the price jump for the regular defend pants to the defend fire pants. The waist sits low, right where a hip pack sits. Combine that with uncomfortable top sew point and the plastic buckle makes for very uncomfortable riding and pedaling with a hip pack. The fly opening is very small which means it’s hard to get on over my hips, and I’m not at all a curvy woman, yet I have to shimmy to get these on. I went by the size guide, ordered a small, probably could have gone with an xs. I’m 5’1” and 110lbs. The length is nice for shorter women. My poc knee pads fit fine under the smalls. Material is durable.
